In Terra, she is a hunter and a bad woman.

However, the fight just now made Maria notice that the person in front of her didn't seem to think so.

His physical condition is terribly weak. If such a person loses his familiar weapons, he may not even be able to survive a full blood moon in Yharnam!

But... she is not a person who is good at expressing herself after all.

Broken Bones in front of him also frowned after hearing Maria's comments.

"So... you think I'm weak?"

As he spoke, he continued to add power to his grenade launcher.

But Maria just kept using her arm to hold the weapon in place and spoke calmly.

"At least, you can't beat me."

"Insanity!"

With a loud roar, Broken Bone suddenly changed his battle plan. He raised the launcher in his hand and aimed the black muzzle at Maria!

"Bang bang——!"

Two shells were fired at the same time and were about to explode at this close range!

But...Maria won't fail at the same trick repeatedly.

After noticing the strange brass shell being fired, she instantly retreated dozens of meters, avoiding the damage range of the small grenade.

Accompanied by the rumbling and shaking of the ground, the explosion occurred again!

"boom--!"

The broken bones broke free from the flames, and the cloak draped over his body swung, and the flames that were originally stained on it were instantly thrown off.

The fight between the two took only a split second, and was so fast that it didn't give anyone else any time to react!

When they came to their senses, they saw the two people separating!

"Come on, Captain!"

The surrounding integration movement, unaware of the truth, began to cheer and encourage their captain.

Although they didn't know what happened at that moment, they saw that Maria was the first to step back.

This also seems to indicate that this woman is not brave enough to confront her captain.

The originally declining morale was also restored a lot.

They all began to cheer and encourage their captain.

But... Broken Bones looked solemn, knowing that he was not at an advantage in the fight with Maria.

The eyes hidden under the gas mask were fixed on the woman in front of him, while he was also scolding his teammates.

"You go first! We must complete the mission!"

"Yes!"

The members of the Reunion Movement nodded.

Although they were still a little worried about this side, since their captain had spoken so, they had nothing to hesitate about.

Just rush and that’s it!

Maria stopped several teams that tried to rush past her and frowned slightly.

The other side... has quite a lot of people?

Although she was not at a disadvantage in the frontal battle, she even had the upper hand at some stages.

But the problem is that there are too many people on the other side, and no matter how fast she is, there is a limit after all.

If these people were to scatter and flee, she might not be able to catch them...

"Is this your idea?"

Maria raised her head and looked at the broken bones in front of her.

After hesitating for a moment, she sighed and then raised her head.

"So... why are you so sure that I can't do anything?"

"If so, why don't you use it?"

Broken Bones was not distracted by Maria, but instead focused on every move of the woman in front of him.

His tense nerves kept sending out danger signals, telling him what a dangerous existence the woman in front of him was.

He is gambling too!

Obviously, given the current situation, Maria would never let them pass through this alley freely.

Simply stacking up numbers is meaningless.

No matter how much meat you put in, the meat grinder will not get stuck.

At this moment, they were the meat, and Maria was the ruthless meat grinder.

In this situation, the only solution is to cast a wide net.

If everyone escapes separately, there will always be a group of people who can successfully escape.

At that time, I can only hope that the other party can complete the task.

But unfortunately...even though it was such a simple wish, Maria had no intention of letting him fulfill it.

"If that's all... then the battle is over..."

Maria said, lowering her head silently.

Chapter 49 Fascinating Charm

"Ah, Texas-senpai!"

Backstage at the concert, Kong looked at Texas, who was sitting obediently backstage, with a look of surprise, feeling somewhat bewildered.

However, her joy did not allow her to think too much. She greeted her companions with a smile and then trotted to Texas.

"Did you come to my concert too?"

"……Um."

Texas was obviously absent-minded, but looking at the excited Kong, she didn't say anything to spoil the fun, but silently followed the other party's meaning.

After pausing for a moment, she forced a smile.

"Your singing... is very beautiful."

"But... I haven't played yet?"

Sora tilted his head in surprise.

Texas' smile froze for a few seconds, but then he turned his head away.

"I meant you did the soundcheck while you were preparing... I heard it too, it was pretty good."

"Hey hey hey... is that so?"

Sora, who was deeply emotional, obviously didn't care about Texas's unnatural tone, but nodded with a smile.

After sticking around for a while, Kong suddenly remembered something and looked around.

"What's wrong?"

Texas asked.

"I was wondering... where is Miss Maria? Senior Texas, weren't you still chatting with Miss Maria? Why are you here alone now?"

Sora tilted his head, rather curious.

"You mean her..."

Texas hesitated for a moment, then forced a smile.

"She has something to do, she'll probably be here soon..."

"In a moment...something?"

Sora was a little confused.

Her keen intuition kept warning her that something was wrong.

Texas is hiding something!

But her trust in Texas made her feel that she didn't need to think too much.

The two emotions intertwined in her mind. After a long pause, she shook her head and looked at Texas with a smile.

Forget it, there's no point in thinking about this.

After all, all you have to do is trust your companions and do your own thing!

"Speaking of which... Senior Texas, have you been staying backstage all this time? Won't you get bored? If you need it, I can arrange a front-row seat for you... Don't worry, it'll be the best!"

Sora continued to stick close to Texas, intimately recommending his own concert.

Meanwhile, Sora's fellow performers gathered around and looked at them in surprise.

"Is she the Texas that Sora keeps talking about?"

"I always thought it was a boy..."

"Putting aside the men and women for now...don't you think Sora's attitude towards her is very different?"

"Different? Hmm... I remember Sora saying that Texas once saved her life... Is this a way of thanking her savior?"

"I don't think so."

Several girls gathered together, occasionally looking up at this side.

Sora, with his enthusiastic attitude, stuck close to the secretive Texas...

Although the scene looks a bit flattering, we are all in the idol industry after all, and observing people's words and expressions is a basic skill.

They could also tell that this Texas lady was clearly troubled, but even so, she was still willing to interact with the flight attendant...

That's interesting.

"I remember when we signed the idol agreement, there was a stipulation that we couldn't have scandals with the opposite sex, right?"

"Well, it seems there is this one...but why do you mention it?"

"I was thinking... Sora is trying so hard to be a good idol, so she must strictly abide by the contract. If that's the case, then she won't be able to interact with men for too long, so she..."

"Hmm... this is hard to say."

Several companions looked at each other and revealed subtle expressions.

Obviously, as people who have experienced this, they all understand the meaning of this sentence.

After all, idols are just their external personas. Internally, they are just a group of young girls, with all the normal joys, sorrows, anger and happiness.

And with emotions, there will naturally be corresponding desires.

As idols who have been in the industry for quite a few years, they have naturally heard that many of their peers have had some wonderful things happen because of various agreements.

So they accepted the idea that Sora might have fallen in love with Texas very quickly.

only……

"This Miss Texas doesn't seem to have any thoughts in this regard?" said a companion, also a little worried.

Although Kong and I are in the same industry, colleagues are not necessarily enemies.

At least, everyone who performed at this charity concert basically had a kind heart. They were occasionally jealous of each other, but they were able to restrain themselves well.

As Kong was the youngest among the group, and also the most hardworking and lively one, he naturally gained the favor of many of the 'older generation'.

So after they saw Kong express such an attitude towards Texas, they also began to analyze it.

"Sora is such a lovely kid, even I can't resist her... She's making such an intimate gesture, and Texas hasn't reacted at all. Could this be a one-sided love of Sora's?"

Thinking of this, the woman couldn't help but start to worry about Kong's future.

On the side, her companions nodded with certainty.

"If nothing unexpected happens, it's definitely unrequited love."
